Information Technology Services (ITS) enables the IT resources used by LSU students, staff, and faculty. ITS’s divisions include the Vice Chancellor for Information Technology, LOUIS – the Louisiana Library Network, User Support & Student IT Enablement, University Information Systems, Research IT Enablement, and Networking and Infrastructure. ITS’s nearly 170 staff members create and maintain vital university systems like course registration and payroll; provide network , wireless and telephone connectivity campus-wide; house the computational resources used by many LSU researchers; staff and maintain student computing labs; and provide direct support to the thousands of computer users here at LSU.
Through engagement with the LSU community and the community’s creation of the Flagship IT Strategy, LSU ITS is more than actively responding to the evolving technical needs and challenges of LSU. ITS is providing forward-thinking solutions like Network 2010, a currently underway effort to build the network of tomorrow – today and InfoSys 2010 to address the quickly evolving computer applications needs of the campus.
Information Technology Services is located in the Fred C. Frey Computing Services Center. It is on the corner of South Stadium Road and Tower Drive. Measuring 205 by 132 feet, the two-story, 56,000 square feet, brick veneer building is situated next to Choppin and Williams Hall with Knapp Hall to the east. A 30-foot arcade area separates Choppin and the Computing Services Center. The Computing Services Center won the Rose Award for architectural design excellence after construction was finished.
The building is named in memory of Major Fred C. Frey (1891-1980), "Mr. LSU", student, athlete, teacher, counselor, friend "who loved and served LSU so well for such a long time."
